Duke Nukem 3D On Unreal Engine 3

Posted by Soulskill on from the all-out-of-bubblegum dept.

Julefrokost writes "While we're waiting patiently on Forever, there's some real news in the Duke Nukem realm. Ars Technica has a story about a fan-made Duke 3D project on Unreal Engine 3. There's an awesome demo video up on YouTube. Created by hardcore fan Frederick 'fresch' Schreiber, we can hopefully expect to see an upgraded Duke 3D in the near future." The article also notes, "Gearbox ultimately decided to support the project, and gave Schreiber a personal, non-commercial license to Duke Nukem 3D. He can't sell the work or profit from it directly, but he can use the characters and design of the game without fear of being shut down."

    Wow, this is the coolest rooftop simulator I've ever seen! If you ask me, this game is ready to ship.

      Yes, I have not been this impressed since the release of Derek Smart's Desktop Commander.

    Shadow warrior:

    Wang: You wanna wash wang? Or watch Wang wash wang?
    Girl in bath: You pervert! *pulls out guns and shoots Wang*

    I sort of thought Shadow warrior and Duke were the same engine and written by the same people. Both games can be played for the humor aspect.
